Configurable Parts

The Esque® Kitchen Collection’s refined curves and cosmopolitan contours give it a clean, poised look that accentuates the fresh modernity of a contemporary kitchen or complements the tranquility of a transitional space. Touch it on. Touch it off. Whether you have two full hands or 10 messy fingers, Delta® Touch2O® Technology helps keep your faucet clean, even when your hands aren’t. A simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle with your wrist or forearm activates the flow of water at the temperature where your handle is set. The Delta TempSense™ LED light changes color to alert you to the water’s temperature and eliminate any possible surprises or discomfort. Delta® MagnaTite® Docking uses a powerful integrated magnet to pull your faucet spray wand precisely into place and hold it there so it stays docked when not in use. Delta® ShieldSpray® Technology cleans with laser-like precision while containing mess and splatter. A concentrated jet powers away stubborn messes while an innovative shield of water contains splatter and clears off the mess, so you can spend less time soaking, scrubbing and shirt swapping. Delta® faucets with DIAMOND™ Seal Technology perform like new for life with a patented design which reduces leak points, is less hassle to install and lasts twice as long as the industry standard*. You can install with confidence, knowing that Delta faucets are backed by our Lifetime Limited Warranty. Electronic parts are backed by our 5-year electronic parts warranty. *Industry standard is based on ASME A112.18.1 of 500,000 cycles.

With Touch2O® Technology a simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle will start and stop the flow of water

I have this faucet for over a year now. I purchased it with sinks etc. from Build.com. I have changed the batteries three time so far. The water doesn’t come with enough force. I feel the batteries should last longer. I think for the price, the product should perform lot better than what I am experiencing.

Absolute State of the Art faucet!!!Best faucet imaginable - from the water temperature light to the shield spray option. Touch free is so convenient as well as the ability to disarm that function - by simply moving the handle. Another great feature is the black matte finish doesn't show fingerprints!

Love the Touch sensor!!We have had this for 3 weeks so far. Really love the touch sensor to not have to touch the handle every time to turn water on and off. The convenience of touch to turn on the water is easy to get used to. Only minor concern so far is the finish on this arctic stainless does hold some water spots or show dirty water spots from splashing.

Very pleased with the faucet. The look is great - looks fabulous in our new kitchen

When using faucet in spray or shield spray mode, will the faucet automatically fall back into stream mode when turned off then back on without having to touch the function switch button on pull down spout?

Asked by: Wesley

Thank you for your question Wesley. The Shield Spray feature is only active while holding the button, however the spray or stream function will stay in that selected mode until manually changed.
Best regards,
Edward

Does the Model 9181T-AR-DST have SpotShield? Does 72055T-AR have SpotShield?
Are the following features compatible? In other words, can they be on the same item? ShieldSpray and Touch clean
Thank you.&nbsp;

Asked by: TLRBrinkman

Hello TLRBrinkman,
Thank you for your inquiry! The Delta Esque Touch2O Pull-Down Kitchen 9181T-AR-DST faucet and the Transitional Electronic Soap Dispenser 72055T-AR are not designed with the SpotShield finish feature. Please see the below link for the SpotShield (SP) and ShieldSpray available faucets. I hope this helps!

Can a cat turn the water on and off if he touches this faucet.

Asked by: Nala

Hello Nala,
Thank you for your inquiry! Should your Delta Esque Touch20 Technology Kitchen Pull-Down 9181T-DST faucet become activated accidentally (cat, dog, children, etc), the automatic shut-off feature will stop the flow of water after four minutes on kitchens and one minute on lavatories if the water is left running with no activity.

I have a Delta ESQUE and it doesn't work. I replaced the batteries twice - new batteries with no luck. The touch control does not work only very very low (drip) flow but the light works. What is wrong &amp; What part do I need to replace and how do I do it?

Asked by: Michael

Hello,
Thank you for your question. I apologize for the issue with the Delta faucet. I will need a little more information. You should receive a email from me shortly. Please refer to the email for further assistance.

Replace water heater and when water main was turned back on the water volume from the faucet has decreased, however volume in the all other faucets &amp; appliances is normal. Is there an adjustment to correct this?

Asked by: Dane

Thank you for your question, Dane! When the water main was turned back on, debris in the pipes most likely ended up in this faucet, especially if it was the first used or closest to the water heater. First, try removing the aerator to check for debris. The wand can also be removed as it also has a debris screen. If the flow is still decreased, you will need to shut off the supplies below the counter, remove the handle, bonnet nut and cartridge. Check the bottom of the cartridge for debris as well. A flush may also be needed.
